The marine biologist and former Royal Marine is based in Dartmouth offering visitors outdoor adventure packages including wreck diving and wildlife trips. His enthusiasm for Devon’s great outdoors has been harnessed by the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. In lending his support to the new campaign he said "This is a fantastic place to live and to share with visitors. Why go anywhere else when you can swim, sail, dive and paddle in one of the most beautiful parts of the country. "
AONB Estuaries Officer Nigel Mortimer said “Monty Halls’ company is one of a growing number of local businesses which can help people to discover and enjoy the great outdoors we are so lucky to live in. Sharing it with others can bring huge benefits to everyone concerned and with growing understanding and expectations, it is imperative that we ensure that we invest and are seen to invest in the environment that supports us all.”
